"The Switch" is a live EP which I assume is stuff that will be on Royalty. Either way it's new Gambino.

What exactly is his novelty? He's THE most talented person in entertainment.

A comedic actor who also raps, WOW, that's amazing! You're easily impressed.

He sucks IMO. I have a friend that "likes" him, but he also hates things that are cool to hate.

CG tries too hard

If we are talking just rap: Wu-Tang, Jay-Z, Mos Def and Talib Kweli, Kanye West, pre 2002 cash money (big tymers, hot boys, b.g., lil wayne, juvenile)

Get out of this thread if that's all you can bring.

* NYU Graduate
* Writer for The Daily Show at 22
* Writer for 30 Rock
* Writers Guild of America Award for Best Comedy Series
* 2 Comedy Central stand up specials
* Star of Community
* Writes and produces his own music
* While he's not writing and filming he's playing Coachella/Beale Street Music Festival/Bonneroo/Lollapalooza.

But yeah, you're right, his stuff is no different than "Shaq Diesel".

Donald Glover is all of the aforementioned things except credible rapper. Deal with it.

You've still yet to give a reason why.

Because his music is made with instruments?
Because he raps about middle class suburbia?
Because his core audience is white?

The dude tries so hard at being a legit rapper and comedian on Camp it's cringe worthy. Pick a side because doing your high pitch/voice cracking comedic lines while similtaneously trying to have me believe you are Kanye is not working. He is just caught up in the moment of this hash tag rap. Lil Wayne has been doing it since the Carter III. Drake is another one. I just am not buying his schtick. He wants me to believe these I am a black guy caught in suburban white America puns and it sounds so forced. He just lacks any cutting edge because right as you hear him hit hard on a serious message he turns the goofball knob up and nullifies any attempt at credibility.

He is the most clever lyricist out there. Lil Wayne doesn't have the mental capacity to come up with half the shite Gambino does.

Just wait until he starts making real money from his music. Once that happens, no one will like him, even though its the same raps.
